Port and PolishSubaru2002 04-24-2003, 01:20 PM Has anyone had their head shaved and/or port and polished? I was seriously thinking about it and was wondering what type of results anyone came up with. I know what it would literally result in, but i just wanted some 1st person input. flylwsi 04-24-2003, 06:25 PM not on a supra... but i had my head ported/polished, milled 30 thousandths, and had the intake manifold polished and port matched... gave a much more robust feeling in my car... it's an 89 prelude si, so it wasn't some lifechanging experience, but i feel that it was worth it.. the car also benefits from other mods more, like my header, new exhaust and straight pipe... compared to a stock 89, it hauls... if you've got the head off, it's worth it, but keep in mind that shaving the head raises compression, not good for turbo... suprasrule 04-24-2003, 11:12 PM I did it to my 1988 Supra. I did it my self just about a week ago. I bought a rebuild engie but have not put it in because of work I'm busy this time of year. If you have the machine and knowledge it is very easy. I bought JE pistons for it but there still in the box. This time of year it is usally race time but the turbo I just bought broke the bearings came lose. But you should feel the difference with new pistions. is your 1992 Supra a turbo if so it makes it much faster. My mods are K&N FI Pk HKS blowoff valve Magna spark plug wires 550cc Injectors (might go to 7200cc) 60-1 wheel turbo upgrade ( I might go to a T04E turbo) Turbo elbow Spearco Innercooler Hks exhaust & test pipe and Down pipe No cats Exaust cut-off for open headers fuel pump and manual pressure regulator Lexus/REMI air fuel management system Clutch Master stage 3 Fluidine radiator Greddy boost controler Gauges to monitor everything HKS MHG DEFIANT7M 05-25-2003, 12:48 AM I am having my head race ported and flowed. I will have the results in two or three weeks. Stock flow numbers vs fully ported. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
